Distributed Space-Time Block Codes for the MIMO Multiple Access Channel

In this work, the Multiple transmit antennas Multiple Access Channel is considered. A construction of a family of distributed space-time codes for this channel is proposed. No Channel Side Information at the transmitters is assumed and users are not allowed to cooperate together. It is shown that the proposed code achieves the Diversity Multiplexing Tradeoff of the channel. As an example, we consider the two-user MIMO-MAC channel. Simulation results show the significant gain offered by the new coding scheme compared to an orthogonal transmission scheme, e.g. time sharing.

Distributed Space Time Codes for the Amplify-and-Forward Multiple-Access Relay Channel

In this work, we present a construction of a family of space-time block codes for a Multi-Access Amplify-and- Forward Relay channel with two users and a single half-duplex relay. It is assumed that there is no Channel Side Information at the transmitters and that they are not allowed to cooperate together. Using the Diversity Multiplexing Tradeoff as a tool to evaluate the performance, we prove that the proposed scheme is optimal in some sense. Moreover, we provide numerical results which show that the new scheme outperforms the orthogonal transmission scheme, e. g. time sharing and offers a significant gain.
